British and Irish Lions head coach Warren Gatland is adamant that he will not make another offer to Jonny Wilkinson ahead of their tour of Australia.
The former England international has been in scintillating form for French giants Toulon, helping them to their first-ever Heineken Cup crown on Saturday and was named the European Player of the Year a few days later.
Wilkinson has declared himself available for the tour should injuries occur, but Gatland has insisted that will be the only reason to make a second call to the 33-year-old.
"We've been through the conversation that we had with Jonny and nothing's changed on that," said Gatland.
"If we picked up an injury on tour, then maybe there's a conversation to be had. Jonny's a good player, but we've had the conversation about him."
The Lions play their first match against the Barbarians in Hong Kong on June 1.
